Topic: How to enable software playback faders for MIDI control
Hi forum,
I fear my first post is going to be embarrasingly newbish, but I've been right stuck for over an hour on something I think should be simple.
I just bought a Babyface Pro, upgrading from the original Babyface. None of my TotalMix config was ported over, so I'm now confronted with the task of setting that up from scratch. I wasn't too fussed -- I thought I knew what I was doing.
I have TotalMix setup for MIDI control, and I use Bome MIDI Translator for various customized behaviour. It's been working great on the original Babyface. My TMFX workspace on the original Babyface had the software playback fader group enabled for MIDI, whereas now, having setup things on the Babyface Pro, the hardware input group is enabled for MIDI control instead.
I can't for the life of me sort out how to change MIDI control from the hardware inputs faders to the software playback faders.
The manual says: "The channels being under Mackie MIDI control are indicated by a colour change of the name
field, black turns to brown. The 8-fader block can be moved horizontally and vertically, in steps of one or eight channels." This is exactly what I want, but the manual doesn't say how, only that it can be done.
I'd be terribly grateful for a cluebatting.
Thanks!
